Terroir:
The vines of Grenache and Mourvèdre evolve on soils of clay and limestone chips.
The Syrah, meanwhile, comes from a limestone soil covered with silica.
Vinification:
The various grapes are vinified individually so that they fully express their own charcteristics. The fermentation lasts 3 to 4 weeks depending on the grape variety. The wines are racked before the start of the malolactic fermentation. The grapes are finally blended and aged for 8 months in oak barrels.
